The International Road Federation (IRF Global*), gave this bridge the Achievement Award in the Quality Management category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This prize, one of the most prestigious attributed in the roads sector, rewards the excellence of the bridge\u2019s design, and especially the implementation of a quality management system throughout the design and construction phases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The prize was given to the Design Joint Venture of engineering firms who designed the bridge: SNC-Lavalin, T.Y. Lin International and SYSTRA International Bridge Technologies.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The reward for a bridge designed to last<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Built to last 125 years, the Samuel-De Champlain Bridge was designed for multimodality with four road lanes, two dedicated to buses and bicycles, but also a dedicated rail track and pedestrian pathways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This longevity is guaranteed thanks to the technical solutions employed to withstand all weather conditions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • High performance concrete was used to resist salt, abrasions, and temperature variations<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Stainless steel frame<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The asphalt is 90mm thick, 30mm thicker than the usual<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Samuel-De Champlain: a record-breaking project<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      <\/div>\n\n\n\n

      Designed, built and completed in just 48 months, thanks to the massive use of high-performance steel and concrete elements, the Samuel-De Champlain Bridge welcomes some 50 million cars, buses and trucks every year, making it one of the busiest bridges in North America, almost three years after its inauguration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      <\/div>\n\n\n\n

      It is one of the widest bridges in the world, with a total deck length of 50 metres, linking Montreal to Brossard, crossing the St. Lawrence River over a length of 3.4km. The latest news is the arrival of the metro on its central deck arriv\u00e9e du m\u00e9tro sur son tablier central: the automatic REM du Sud line links will link Brossard to Montreal’s Central Station by crossing the bridge in spring 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
